Blake Snell Set for Surgery to Remove Loose Bodies From Elbow. Dodgers Expect Him Back This Season
Blake Snell will have surgery to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, and the Dodgers expect a quicker recovery and a season return.
- Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Blake Snell will undergo surgery Tuesday to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, with the team expecting the two-time Young Award winner to return this season.
- Snell was scratched from his scheduled start Friday after feeling pain in his elbow Thursday, when an examination revealed loose bodies in the joint.
- Dodgers manager Dave Roberts indicated the 33-year-old could undergo a procedure similar to Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, noting the surgery is expected to facilitate quicker recovery.
- The Dodgers are already without closer Edwin Diaz, who had elbow surgery in April, and starter Tyler Glasnow is currently on the injured list because of back spasms.
- Even with Snell and Glasnow unavailable, Roberts said the team would like to keep their starting rotation on schedule, giving active starters at least five days off between starts.
